forward problem in JSP

[Sankar Subbiramaniam]

Hi Helpers,
I have a problem in accessing the session data in my JSP. The actual session is created by a servlet. Then after validation, forwards this to a jsp page. In this jsp page, i am not able to access the data stored in session object. I believe a new session is getting created.
(Interestingly, when this JSP in turn invokes another servlet, i am able to acces the same session object created in the first servlet).
Can somebody help in this ?
Thanks
sankar

Make sure you are NOT using the session object in declarations like
<%! session.getValue(MY_KEY)%>
That won't work because the implicit objects are LOCAL variables of the service() method of the generated servlet.
You have to use
<% session.getValue(MY_KEY)%>
instead.

Thanks Tony. I will check my JSP and will inform you about the progress.
